Economically to the right of Genocide Joe.

Long-term capital gains, or assets held for more than one year, are currently taxed at a maximum rate of 20%.

So not nothing, but not much, assuming the change can be pushed through at all. Nothing will fundamentally change. These taxes wouldn’t even affect well-paid workers; they only kick in at $1M.

      I get the sentiment, but I don’t think small businesses often have capital gains.

        ugh. somehow in my mind I thought this was corporate tax but I guess we still won’t change them much.
